New Forum Default Skin

[lawrawrrr]

I've got a new Habbo skin (but a less... in your face Habbo one) in design development now, once it's done we just need someone to code it!!!

Personally I think the default skin should always match the site so there's a consistent theme or branding applied to the fansite - as we were talking about before!

It's always good to have alternatives though and while we do have a lot of different skins, we don't have a lot of great ones! There was actually a pastel skin in development but it wasn't completed before the developer left Habbox which was a real shame because it's a gorgeous skin. I would love someone to finish it!

We do use Taptalk and I think quite a lot of our users do use it, I see it in a lot of posts and things!

When you mention icons and things what do you mean? The actual WYSIWYG text editor is fairly standard for vBulletin forums, with a few extra additions you don't really NEED but might WANT to use. Other icons I don't really know what you mean!

I think maybe having a simple how to use the forum guide might be a good idea to include in the initial welcome PM, that should make it easier, but I'd like to know what you mean by icons so we can make sure we cover everything! @Samanfa;, @Empired; what do you think, to encourage new users to stick around?

Yeah sounds good, if we don't try it we'll never know! Although it's been so long since I got a welcome PM I don't even know what it says either .

It used to be, now it doesn't really have a brand colour if we go by V7.

I agree though, we do need a handful of new skins to replace the tired looking ones. I think the primary focus should be on finishing the matching V7 skin and then perhaps seeing what sort of themes users would like.

That's a fair point, although I'd hope @David; has made v8 back to brand, otherwise we may as well go with Habbic's idea...
